Sparkling Varietals

Sparkling wine is a type of wine with significant levels of carbon dioxide, which gives it a fizzy or bubbly characteristic. It produces a wide range of styles, from light and crisp to rich and complex, with flavors of apple, pear, citrus, and often a touch of toast or yeast. The ABV for sparkling wines typically ranges from 11-13%. Its popularity is due to its celebratory nature and its versatility as a food-friendly wine.

Sparkling wines are produced in many wine-growing regions around the world, with notable examples including Champagne from France, Prosecco from Italy, and Cava from Spain. The production process for sparkling wine often involves a secondary fermentation, either in the bottle (traditional method) or in large tanks (Charmat method), which creates the bubbles. Sparkling wines are often enjoyed for celebrations, toasts, and special occasions, making them a favorite among wine lovers seeking something festive and refreshing.
